Day 24 - Beijing to Xi'an

Up very early this morning to get out to the airport and catch our flight to Xi'an. Xi'an is a lovely city with old town walls , a bell and drum tower. We are staying in the youth hostel here which is very impressive, lovely rooms, lots of information on how to get to various tourist locations and activities every night. It even has a roof top sitting area!

After some comfort food at Pizza Hut we rented bikes and cycled up on the city wall. It was great being able to look down on the city - even though it was a little hot in the 35 degrees plus heat we managed to get all the way round the walls!! A beer half way round helped with the dehydration!
